The Mutt Hutt

The Mutt Hutt is a dog boarding and daycare facility at 2546 55th Street in Vinton, Iowa. It offers overnight stays, day visits, and hourly care, so it can cover a weekend away or just a long workday. Overnight rates run from $25 to $30 per night.

What does a stay at The Mutt Hutt include?

Dogs stay in large kennels inside a temperature-controlled building. A large outdoor area gives them room to run and play between rests. Dogs get as many exercise and potty breaks as they need, and staff will brush them and clean any dirty fur during the stay.

• Overnight boarding and day visits
• Hourly care for shorter stretches
• Large kennels in a climate-controlled indoor space
• A large outdoor area for running and play
• Brushing and cleaning of dirty fur as needed

What makes it different?

The Mutt Hutt keeps its goal simple: attention, affection, and activity. The kennel's own description is warm and homey, and it says it wants dogs to feel like they have a second home. Owners can bring a familiar food bowl, blanket, or toys to help a nervous dog settle in. The facility can also handle dogs on special diets, which helps if your dog has a sensitive stomach.
